Continuous form of basalt fiber comprise a major share of the basalt fiber market in terms of value and volume.
Continuous basalt fibers account for the major share of the overall basalt fiber market. Basalt fibers are used as composites and non-composites. These fibers are used more in composites compared to non-composites due to the growing demand for lightweight, high-strength, and cost-effective materials. The high demand for basalt fiber is due to its unique properties such as non-corrosiveness, heat & fire resistance, and high mechanical strength.

Based on the usage type, composites dominated the basalt fiber market in terms of both, value and volume.
Composites and non-composites are the two major usage types of basalt fibers. Composites basalt fibers are preferred over non-composites and are used in several applications in industries such as automotive & transportation, sporting goods, wind energy, construction & infrastructure, and pipes & tanks. These composites offer properties such as high strength and lightweight.

The automotive & transportation end-use industry accounted for the largest market share in the global basalt fiber market during the forecast period in terms of value.
Basalt fibers have shown good mechanical and physical properties over conventional E-glass and close to S-glass and carbon fibers. To reduce the cost of sheet molding compounds (SMC) and bulk molding compounds (BMC) parts while maintaining high strength and stiffness, the automotive & transportation industry is looking at basalt fiber as a good option over conventional E-glass. Advanced basalt fibers have over 150°C more heat resistance than regular glass fibers, and hence its woven fabrics and mats are suitable for applications such as heat and sound insulation of car interior and engine parts.
